He really dared to go? The price of carbon-14 appraisal wasn't cheap. Even if he lost, he would still have to pay a lot of money.
Don't do anything with carbon-14. Porcelain can't be made with carbon-14.
Both sides seemed to be full of confidence. I was numb. I didn't know which side to believe.
Perhaps it was because he had seen the bullet screen in the live broadcast room, but another male host explained to the audience,
"Of the mainstream cultural relic identification technology testing methods, carbon-14 is indeed the most well-known.”
"However, carbon-14 is not suitable for antique appraisal. Firstly, porcelain and other antiques contain less carbon, so the accuracy is low.”
"The second is that carbon-14 must be taken. This will destroy the integrity of the antique collection!”
"Take antique porcelain as an example. The identification is usually done using fluorescence analysis or devitalization detection techniques.”
"However, the former requires a large database for comparison. You need to go to the capital or Shanghai.”
"So I think the director team will bring the Wang family to do the devitalization test.”
Then, he played the general information of the devitalization test so that the viewers could understand it more clearly.
According to the research on porcelain, the glaze formed by high-temperature melting was a kind of glass state.
As time passed, the internal structure of the porcelain would automatically adjust.
This was the aging phenomenon of the glaze.
The glaze of the ancient porcelain looked softer and warmer than the new ones. The longer the time passed, the greater the contrast.
After reading the introduction of the appraisal, many viewers in the live broadcast room began to jeer.
If the difference became greater as time passed, then Professor Li really couldn't be said to be wrong.
Yes, as a porcelain cultural relic expert, it was impossible to refute such a mistake, right?
The host could only smile bitterly at the netizens 'questions and did not answer them.
After all, if he asked about the effects of the show, he would definitely have to go for an appraisal.
In the live broadcast of various major platforms, the director, Professor Li, and other experts brought the Wang family to the appraisal company that the Zion Museum had cooperated with.
Because it was a television station, the person in charge of this appraisal agency personally received everyone.
After asking for the reason, the slightly plump person-in-charge with the surname Bai also revealed the same expression as Professor Li and said,
"This…although we are serving the public, when faced with this kind of obvious…uh, obvious item that doesn't need to be appraised, we really don't need to waste resources to appraise it.”
The white fatty wanted to say something, but when he saw the expressions of the Wang family members, he obediently arranged for the equipment to be identified.
Although the white fatty did not have the eyesight of an expert, he had been in charge of the instrument for many years and had seen many different porcelain styles.
The porcelain bowls that the Wang family had brought were obviously in the modern aesthetic style.
"It won't be long. The instruments now are very precise. The results will be out in 15 minutes.”The white fatty rubbed his hands uneasily.
He could see that the Wang family's gazes were very unfriendly. It would be a big headache if they caused trouble here when the results were out.
He hoped that with the program team's live broadcast, these people would restrain themselves a little...
Time passed as everyone waited.
"Isn't it 15 minutes? Why isn't he out yet?”
Professor Li didn't want to stay here any longer. Not long after the time was up, he asked.
The director didn't say anything about this. After all, the longer the time passed, the more popular the topic would be, and the greater the traffic would be.
"Yeah, I'm curious too. Everyone, calm down. Little Qi, go in and take a look.”
Puzzled, the white fatty ordered his subordinates to go to the laboratory to ask about the situation.
After a while, a researcher in a white coat walked out with a report.
"What's wrong? Why are you pulling a long face?" The fat man asked.
"Leader, the report is out. I was just checking if the machine was broken.”
The researcher looked as if he had seen a ghost. He handed over the report and continued,
"The porcelain bowl has been tested for its glaze coating. It is estimated to be between 2200 and 2250.”
The moment he said this, it immediately caused a huge uproar at the scene!
" What?!"
"Impossible!"
"Is the machine broken?"
Especially Professor Li and the white fatty. With their professionalism, they would never have thought that such a thing would happen.
On the other hand, a few members of the Wang family revealed a happy expression.
Wasn't 2200 years ago just 200 years ago, the period after the Qin Dynasty agreed to the Six Kingdoms?
The bullet comments in the live broadcast room also exploded instantly. The screen was filled with the word 'Holy f * ck'.
It could be said that the biggest reversal in the live streaming industry this year had been witnessed by them!
Anyone who had gone through nine years of compulsory education could feel the collapse of their worldview at this moment.
Are you sure it's true? Once this was confirmed, it would be a huge earthquake in the world of archaeology!
"Do it again!"
While everyone was at a loss, Professor Li quickly calmed down.
"What? Do it again?" The director, the white fatty, and the beautiful host also recovered from their daze.
"Yes! Immediately, do it again! Do you know what this result means?”Professor Li's face was trembling in shock.
The white fatty trembled as he reacted and said,"This means…this will be the most significant archaeological discovery of the 21st century?”
Then, under the white fatty's personal operation, he turned on another backup machine in the laboratory.
After testing, it was also determined that this was a porcelain bowl from the Qin Dynasty.
The director was also stunned. He did not expect that he would be involved in such a major archaeological discovery just because he was making a show.
However, he reacted quickly. This was a chance for their television station to turn the tables.
He quickly contacted the leaders of the television station and the internal department to apply for funds to follow up on this matter.
"Everyone can see that. This family heirloom of the Wang family might be the most valuable archaeological relic in the world.”
"Our program team and Professor Li would like to apologize to you for our previous misjudgment. At the same time, we hope that you can cooperate.”
"Come with us to the Palace Museum in the capital and do an energy-dispersing X-ray fluorescence analysis. Only through elemental analysis can we finally confirm that this porcelain bowl really comes from the Qin Dynasty.”
After hearing this, the Wang family members felt that it was good to have labor fees for them to travel to Beijing, so they agreed.
In just a few hours, this matter had been spread by various news, media, and Short videos.
Su Tian also saw this report through the television at home.
When he saw the porcelain bowl that he had personally made appear on television, his mouth was wide open in shock…
"F * ck, this is my bowl…"
Kowtow, evaluation, monthly votes, thank you big shots!
